Couldn't disagree with you more millard was shocking the play always slowed to a snails pace when he was on the pitch. Higham has been one of the few that has given above 100% in the majority of games, always busy and tackles his pan out.

i would have thought mickey would be waiting for the franchise announcement to see if the lobbies have got in.

lobbies wont get into super league i think it will be salford widnes and celtic crusaders with cas or wakey dropping out

wakey dropping out, theyre a quality side.

Micky higham is a bit of a liability, misses to many tackles, doesnt pass the ball accuratly. He only really offers us a bit of speed in a half break.

Wonder were higham lies in tries assisted in comparison with other super league hookers.

Just had a quick look picked out KC Newton and Roby in comparison ,
Roby stat wise is best with a mile most tries yards and assists in fact leads the way in most things.
KC and Newton are similar both have a couple os assists and tries Higham as one of each but makes more tackles and yards than the other two who you would regard as top hookers?
If you look at it Higham is busier but is not very creative
KC and Newton appear lazy in comparison work wise Roby as the lot work and creativity .
Just shows stats are just that stats and don't tell the whole story or do they?

It was a rhetorical question from Geoff meaning Millard never did outplay Higham. Quite correct too.

We never looked better with Millard on the pitch at all. Everything he did was telegraphed he was so slow.

Millard has got to be one of the worst Wigan signings of recent years regardless of Higham's ability.

Whatever Dave, can't be bothered now anyway, i've done me back again and can hardly move, so not in mood to argue :conf:

i actually want him to go to huddersfield
He'll be respected greatly there something that he isnt getting a wigan
he's a better impact player and has been since he started the game.
He took centre stage at wigan and yes tackling was and is brilliant but we need someone to steady the ship, not someone who's gonna give a risky flat ball across the line.
So basically.. Good Luck Mick!

MM out aswell then?

I wouldnt say Mickeys a bad player, because he's not but his style of play doesn't suit how wigan play. He has one major flaw in that he's a penalty machine, he gives away more penalties than most of the other players combined. He's obviously not going to stay at Wigan because we dont need 3 hookers, so he knows he's on his way out so good luck to the lad if he's signed for hudds
